Toxic political discourse

[Julian]

At term to describe the sad state of politics America in the 21st century.
With the increasing influence of [talk radio] and so-called new commentators, there is more [vitriolic] [argumenting] and shouting than ever. People like Sarah Palin,Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Ann Coulter and Mike Savage are ranting and raving like complete idiots. These people tear down and make up lies about people they disagree with rather than offer any solutions to the problems we face.
This toxic political atmosphere is making political campaigns longer, meaner, dirtier and more expensive every year.
